Offenses Seek Lines Open to Communication
Heading into the opening weekend of the college football season, Virginia Tech aimed to live up to its billing as a national title contender, Maryland planned to counter those who said the Terrapins were too young to succeed and North Carolina State, a team labeled by many as ascendant in the ACC, looked to show off Russell Wilson, its first-team all-conference quarterback. Oklahoma, meanwhile, entered the season with the defending Heisman Trophy winner and a No. 3 national ranking.
Heading into the second weekend, all four teams are 0-1, though that's not the only common thread. The Hokies, Terrapins and Wolfpack gave up six sacks apiece in losses to Alabama, California and South Carolina, respectively.
